So much of our quantum manifest existence is a collusion of vanity-vanity-all-is-vanity.
Each of us wandering restlessly through life, masturbating each other's egos.

In our time’s industrial-technological mindset,
The cyclic rhythms of planets and moons and stars,
Are usurped in every way by mechanisms and algorithms.
More and more, we merely simulate existence, function unwittingly,
Not all that differently from tedious, senseless, mindless, zombie-esque cogs,
In a traumatized world where concepts have replaced nature,
In any and every ways and means one might look.

The usurpation of homo sapien consciousness over the natural order is bound to tumble.
Those who do not abide by the rules of the game must eventually be thrown off the board.

How convenient it is for the multitude
Only capable of misinterpreting and usurping
The true meaning of those given vision.

Without even beginning to comprehend their true meaning.
The literal-minded are mesmerized by their absurdity.
